I am not a morning person, to say the least… but I sprang out of my bed bright and early to preview the new CHANEL Beauty Event at White Villa Tel Aviv. Taking place on all floors of the luxury boutique hotel , the CHANEL space was as chic as it gets!

 

The space itself was a visual gem

It was definitely one of those “RUN, DON’T WALK” events. Not only can you choose from a selection of complimentary services* (Makeup Master Class from a CHANEL pro, anyone?), but there was a Chanel mani-pedi. And if that’s not enough excitement for you, the space itself is a visual gem – with rows upon rows of lipsticks and nail polish in various poppy shades, glam vanity mirrors, and other très CHANEL details.

The collection is a journey into the colors that shaped the life of Gabrielle Chanel

The collection is a journey into the colors that shaped the life of Gabrielle Chanel. Her use of color was defiant, unexpected, elegant and bold – and always utterly original.

Now a part of the very fabric and history of CHANEL, it is impossible to imagine the House without them. Yet in this collection, Lucia Pica has found a way to breath new life into these beloved colors,  challenging conventional modes of beauty. Rouge noir can now adorn the lips in Spring. White and beige are reimagined for nails. Red becomes younger, bolder, more audacious than ever.

At the end of my visit, I walked out with the new Rouge Coco Gloss, which quickly became my new favourite. It’s super moisturizing, glides on for a smooth and creamy application with a superb colour pay-off – a must-have for the summer.
